Pitt County Coalition on Substance Abuse Host Winterville STOP Series
Pitt County Coalition on Substance Abuse Hosts STOP Series at the Winterville Community Center, on Tuesday, March 21st, 2017 from 6-8:00 pm.
Pitt County Coalition on Substance Abuse collaborates with the Vidant Health Foundation and the Pitt County Sheriff’s Department to host STOP Series. The STOP series is a one-time session that speaks on different aspects of opioids.
The three parts that will be presented on are Opioids 101, Personal Stories, and Current Trends. Opioids 101 will answer the questions: what are opioids, how do they help with pain, why are they so addictive, what about genetics, and what else can be used to console pain.
With the Personal Stories, you will hear presentations from those who have personal experience with battling addiction and from family or friends who have experienced this battle with their loved ones. During the Current Trends, you will hear from local law enforcement about the Good Samaritan Law, Narcan, law enforcement efforts, and learn about harm reduction. There will also be exhibitors there if anyone has questions such as what to expect from treatment and how you can help when your loved one is in treatment. Dinner will be provided to all in attendance of the event.
